Our Story

From a small shop in Japan to serving anime fans worldwide

Where It All Began

Otaku Tee started as a humble passion project in the heart of Tokyo, Japan. What began as a small corner shop dedicated to anime merchandise has grown into a global brand serving passionate anime fans across the world.

Our founders, lifelong anime enthusiasts, recognized that fans everywhere wanted to express their love for their favorite series through high-quality, unique apparel. We set out to bridge that gap, one t-shirt at a time.

The early days were filled with hand-selecting designs, personally quality-checking every print, and getting to know our local community of anime lovers. That dedication to quality and personal touch remains at the core of everything we do today.

Going Global

As demand grew beyond Japan, we knew we had to think bigger. Today, we've expanded our operations globally while maintaining the same commitment to quality that made our Tokyo shop special.

To serve our worldwide community efficiently and sustainably, we've established strategic production partnerships:

  • 🇺🇸North American orders are produced and shipped from our US facility, ensuring fast delivery times and reduced environmental impact.
  • 🇪🇺European orders are manufactured and dispatched from our EU production center, providing quick shipping across Europe.
  • 🌏Rest of the world orders are fulfilled from the facility closest to your location.
